**Primary Purpose**
Centralized error message factory for timeout-related errors in the debug server. Provides consistent, descriptive error messages with contextual information to help diagnose timeout issues across different debug operations.
**Key Components**
**ErrorMessages Object (L6-55)**
Export object containing factory functions for timeout error messages:
- `dapRequestTimeout` (L15-18): Factory for Debug Adapter Protocol request timeouts
- Parameters: `command` (string), `timeout` (number)
- Usage: DAP requests that don't receive responses within timeout period
- Default timeout: 35 seconds
- Used in: `src/proxy/proxy-manager.ts`
- `proxyInitTimeout` (L27-30): Factory for debug proxy initialization timeouts
- Parameters: `timeout` (number)
- Usage: When debug proxy process fails to initialize
- Default timeout: 30 seconds
- Used in: `src/proxy/proxy-manager.ts`
- `stepTimeout` (L39-42): Factory for step operation timeouts
- Parameters: `timeout` (number)
- Usage: When step operations (stepOver, stepInto, stepOut) don't complete
- Default timeout: 5 seconds
- Used in: `src/session/session-manager.ts`
- `adapterReadyTimeout` (L51-54): Factory for adapter ready timeouts
- Parameters: `timeout` (number)
- Usage: When waiting for debug adapter configuration times out
- Default timeout: 30 seconds
- Used in: `src/session/session-manager.ts` (as warning)
**Architectural Patterns**
- Factory pattern: Each property returns a function that generates contextual error messages
- Centralized message management: Single source of truth for timeout errors
- Parameterized messages: Dynamic insertion of command names and timeout values
- Diagnostic guidance: Each message includes troubleshooting suggestions
**Dependencies**
- No external dependencies
- Pure TypeScript utility module
- Consumed by proxy and session management modules
**Key Design Decisions**
- Messages include diagnostic context and recovery suggestions
- Timeout values are parameterized for flexibility
- Comprehensive JSDoc documentation with usage locations
- Consistent message structure across all timeout scenarios
